Vatican City

Flew to Rome from München on my (roundabout) way to London - arrived late and the power was out when I reached my hotel not far from the airport. This made it difficult to actually identify which building actually was the hotel, not to mention the fact that I had to figure out all the circuit breakers that had tripped in order to get light in my room - sigh!! After settling in I decided to head into Rome to take my opportunity to find the two Vatican City caches and to actually set foot in the Vatican (thereby gaining one more border crossing). Found the caches - easy in the dark - not too many muggles - saw St. Peter's Square. Got stopped by the police trying to get out of the square the short way - waited till they had gone and then exited that way anyway.

Tomorrow, off to San Marino.
